Theme TypeDescription
Flat

Themes made exclusively with flat colors. No gradients and no images are used. All colors can be customized in the 'Customize' tab.

Gradient

A gradient is used on the background of these themes. You can change the color of the gradient by changing the 'Background' color in the 'Customize' tab. By adjusting the opacity of the 'Background' color you can show more or less of the gradient effect.

Pattern

A small repeating image is used as the background of these themes. Adding a 'Background' color in the 'Customize' tab will hide the background image but you can still add a 'Background' color with a lower opacity to create a 'colorize' effect over the image pattern.

Image

A large image is used as the background of these themes. Adding a 'Background' color in the 'Customize' tab will hide the background image but you can still add a 'Background' color with a lower opacity to create a 'colorize' effect over the image.

Weather Conditions

A single 'Weather Conditions' theme is currently available. This displays a different background image and colors according to the current weather. Please note that you can not customize the colors of this theme.

Color nameDescription
All

The colors can be set by either typing any valid color in an input field, or by clicking the color swatch next to the field and selecting a color using the color picker. Note that the rightmost column on the color picker selects the opacity.

Background

The background color of the widget. With an image based theme the background color is usually removed so that the image behind it can be seen. You can also make the background, semi-transparent by lowering its opacity in order to blend and colorize whatever lies behind it.

Required: No Default: None

Accent

This is the color background for all the odd forecast day columns (i.e. 1, 3, 5, 7). Setting this to a color (e.g. black or white) with low opacity makes it easy to blend the accent with the background color.

Required: No Default: None
